Former three-time F1 world champion, Sir Jackie Stewart has been the global ambassador for the watch giant 'Rolex' for 54 years. The Flying Scot has been a proud owner of multiple watches from this brand and was influential in Rolex joining F1 as its official timekeeper for more than a decade.

The 85-year-old first owned a watch from the iconic brand in the mid-60s and sported that during F1 race weekends and later became associated with them in 1968. Interestingly, Stewart has been spotted wearing a crisp white shirt with a Rolex logo for years in the F1 paddock and attends almost every race possible.

As per Collecting Cars's Andy Callan, Sir Jackie Stewart, in his efforts to represent Rolex as best as possible, even has his left sleeve shorter than his right so that he can showcase his watch on his wrist to the camera.
